A singing Nun called Anna
Was caught in a flood in Havana.
As she floated away,
The other Nuns, so they say,
Accompanied her on the piana

She stood on the bridge at midnight,
Her lips were all a quiver.
She gave a cough,
Her leg fell off and floated down the river.

Not sure why that suddenly came to mind....... :-S

I knew who he/they are, but I had to Google the date :-D :-D

How ironic if I had penned the post on the correct date :-D

Alas, it was to be, or not to be...

Don't get me started on that again ;-) :-D :-D :-D

No lie-in, then Allan, but a very long day :-(

:-D :-D :-D@Caroline

I do hope that I'm not underappreciated this morning. Off soon to do a charity sausage sizzle.....nothing unusual about that, rather bland in fact. :-\

Except, I was going to do the first shift from 07.00 to 10.00, then changed to an afternoon shift at someone's request due to his family situation.

All very noble so far :-D

Except, I was to take some stuff in for the commencement of the event which has been in our fridge/freezer. So now I'm going in at 06.00 to the lodge hall, no one will be at the site of the event until 0.7.00, to drop my stuff off, help with a few preparations there,and hang around until 07.00 so that I can drop off supplies before heading home :-|

Oh yes, on the way in I also have to pick up some bags of ice.

Why we need ice I have no idea. In fact why we need sausages I have no idea.

The weather is atrocious and a series of active cold fronts have moved across the south west all week. Very strong winds and heavy rain yesterday and the same forecast today, with a soupcon of thunderstorms added for good measure :-|

There are times when I find it very hard to be charitable :-D :-D

I don't know, I'll have to refer to the Thread Snatcher's thread, although I'm fairly sure that knitting needles were involved in that murder ;-) :-D :-D

I knew a doctor once who wasn't very good :-(

You could tell from the way his patients ran out :-D :-D :-D
